Among the star-studded list of celebrities sitting down with Osborne to present their favorite films will be Whoopi Goldberg on Nov. 1; Donald Trump on Nov. 3; Danny DeVito on Nov. 10; Matt Groening on Nov. 14; Tracy Ullman on Nov. 17; Alec Baldwin on Nov. 20; Kermit the Frog on Nov. 21; Harvey Fierstein on Nov. 26 and Martha Stewart on Nov. 30.

In addition to the 29 celebrities participating in the November festivall, one viewer, Paul Aguirre, was also chosen as part of the 30-day line-up to program his own night. The New York City resident’s video was chosen by viewer votes in TCM’s online contest at tcm.com. His evening of film selections will air on Thanksgiving night as a “thank you” from TCM to its dedicated audience of film lovers.

One of my favorite actresses is Sandra Bullock. She has said that she got her start in a show made for tv called \"Bionic Showdown\". I saw it on TV and with a new remake coming out on NBC would like to see it and The \"Return of the Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman\", and \"Bionic Ever After\". Please help me. Also during National Breast Cancer month I thought that someone would show the Ann Jillian story, although she had said in the movie that she didn\'t want to be identified with breast cancer. In my opinion she is a hero by coming through it and not being afraid to tell others. Alot of people can learn from just the movie about exams and options. I would like to see this also. I love your station since it has no comercials and you also give history about the movies you show. Keep up the excellent job!
